The Richmond Dispatch, is not very highly elated as to tho probable benefits the South will receive from this noble contribution for education. It says: What can wc say of Mr. Peabody's munificent gift for promoting educa? tion in the more destitute portions of tho Southern States? It is a large donation, and education is a very good thing. Neither is it to be de? nied that some parts of our Southern country are so impoverished that children can scarcely be supplied with food, to say nothing of schooling. It is quite true, also, that tho people in the Southern States have need, like Massachusetts, of more and sounder education than they have. But with? out saying a word to disparage the liberal donor, or to depreciate his immense gift, it may be permitted, perhaps, to question whether this endowment, and the action of these trustees, will altogether answer the intentions and wishes of the worthy Mr. Peabody. The trustees he has named, are, in a great majority, Northern men; and it is provided that on the death or resignation of any of them, they shall elect another, "having in view equality of repre? sentation as far as regards the North? ern and Southern States"-that is, such proportions as he has himself adopted in his first appointment. Certainly Mr. Peabody had a right to keep all this money in his own safe; and if he wished to give it away, he alone had the right to dic? tate how it should be used. He might have vested in Wendell Phil? lips or Horace Greeley the right to appoint all his school teachers and professors, and compile all his school books. And this is substantially what he has done. Thia is a fund for bring? ing up children at the South as Yan? kees; and the teachers placed over them, and the school books prepared for them, must necessarily be such as to make them abhor the principles and denounce the actions of their own fathers. It is also observable that the generous founder ol' this in? stitution provides that its benefits are to be "equally distributed to all, without other distinction than their needs." And this, of course, is per? fectly right. But probably Mr. Pea? body knows-certainly his trustees know-that in these Southern States white children and black never attend the same school together. Practi? cally, then, this endowment is a fund for the education of negroes; and so let it be. They certainly have great need of some teaching if they are ever again to become an useful ele? ment in our population. They will have the entire benefit of this fiue endowment, aud we heartily wish they may derive much benefit from it. If they really rise by this moans to the rank of intelligent and respon? sible citizens, they will surely have ? reason for generations to come to bless the name of Peabody. The Savannah News says the plant? ers in Southern and South-western Georgia have adopted the plan of di? versifying the crops, regretting that they devoted so much attention to cotton last year. They have come to the conclusion that they cannot raise cotton to the exclusion of breadstuff's and sell it at thirty or thirty-five cents a pound, when they work freed? men, aud pay twenty-five cents a pound for bacon, Si.50 a bushel for corn, when flour is SIG and &19 a barrel, and when every necessary article is at equally high rates. They believe that the only help for the present terribly depressed condition is to be found in raising as much as possible of the necessaries of life thus not only saving expenses, but contributing to the general prosperi? ty of the country. Plenty of food is the first condition of improved times at the South. ... .^..^ One of the Virginia State Senators owns in his own right 100,000 acres of land. He mast be "land poor." JIL ?ja.ru i l'on? Brick Pomeroy. I Thc following appears in the Lou? isville Joumaloi the 8th instant: LotrxsvrxjoE HOTEL, February 0. | Tb the Editors of the Louisville Jour- j nal: Permit me, in all kindness, to make a correction. Your correspondent at Frankfort, writing * from that very pleasant city ander date of the 5th instant, in a kind notice of my mixed 'up lecture for a worthy object, in that i city, says: "Brick lectures for the benefit of tho Southern poor, and his agent takes subscriptions for the LaCrossc Demo? crat. lu fact, Brick has business talents," &c, <vc. The inference is, that, like some politicians, I am "wafting"' on two horses. Tho letter is correct in all j save this: My agent did not take subscriptions in Frankfort. I have no agent with me, and have not had on this or any other trip. Instead of taking subscribers for my paper, let me add that I never, in my life, asked a man to do so-took nono in Frankfort, but on being of? fered subscription money there de? clined taking it, and referred people \ to the post office aa a means to reach the Democrat office with their orders. I do not know how many friends were acting as agents, but such acts were without my knowledge. Thc inference of your correspondent would place me in ibo category of New Fngland benevolence, which seeks self moro than others, and I am not doing business that way. My trip South is to learn the wants, sen? timents and sufferings of that deso? lated country, and my lectures, by the way, are to help her suffering poor. If it was to benefit myself, I should lecture on my own account, or remain at home attending to a bu? siness which demands all my time. Presuming that your correspondent was misinformed, or misinferred, and with kindest wishes for him and yon as the editor of the paper which first gave me my sobriquet I am truly and fraternallv thine. M. M. ("BanciQ POMEBQY. GKN. R. E. LEK FOE GOVERNOR OP VIRGINIA.-We have never seen it an? nounced, says the Richmond Eva miner, that General Lee would refuse to serve, if elected to the office of Governor of Virginia. Wo., do not believe that, if the people, who honor and revere him as their ancestors did Washington, were to ask him to re? store to our highest Executive office the dignity, honor, importance and respect which it inspired when Jef? ferson, Henry, and other great men of that rank, were our Governors, that he would deny them the priceless blessing of his great executive abili? ties. And there never -was a period in our history whee, Virginia stood more in need of this great man's ser? vices than now. Before the people of Virginia bestow a moment's atten? tion upon the pretensions of any other prominent man, let the fact be distinctly understood, that even if elected by a spontaneous, irrepressi? ble outbreak of popular will, General Lee will not accept the office of Go? vernor of Virginia. No one asks that man si? Illustrious and so enshrined in the affections of avery mau, wo? man and child in Virginia as General Lee, shall declare himself a candi? date. In the name of the people of Virginia, (before we notice the "claims" of others,) we ask, will Robert Edmund Lee accept the grate? ful homage of the unanimous support of Virginia, and, by becoming our ! Governor, recall the grand memories of tho days of Henry and Jefferson? There was a time, when his splen? did genius had hur'ed army after army of Federal invaders, broken, defeated and demoralized, from the soil of his mather State, and when our success seemed assured, that ru? mor attributed to this great man the modest admission, "that he craved no higher honor than to be the Go? vernor of Virginia." Until he speaks, we trust that no inferior man will dare to outrage public opinion in Virjfrhia by ven? turing to solicit au office, which Lee may not feel authorized to decline. THE SOUTHERN RELIEF COMMISSION. The Southern Relief Commission met this afternoon. Tho sum of 821,188 has been collected. Thc committed will make a report in a few days. Orders have been given for the pur? chase of 20,000 bushels of corn, 9.000 bushels of which will ga to three points in Alabama; 5,000 bushels to two points in Georgia, 3,000 bushels to South Carolina, and 3,000 bushels to North Carolina. This corn will be shipped, except that for North Carolina, from a West? ern market. The transportation will be free. The committee needs funds to exente much larger orders. .

BTos letti r-DEAR Sin: This is to certify that I 1 was taken with tho dyspepsia a year ago last March, and. for a period of eight months, was one of thc most miserable creatures you ever beheld, not being able either to eat, drink or sleep, and was com? pelled to walk the floor incessantly. I was nearly deprived of my reason, and hope had entirely left me, all the efforts made for my recovery having proved fruitless. By thc first of November, 1865, I had become so weak arid feeble that I could scarcely stand alone, and, to all appear? ance, would soon die. At this time, (hav? ing read your advertisement,) my wife prevailed upon me to try your Ritters. A bottle was procured, and, strange to say, I soon commenced recovering. I have taken four bottles, and am enjoying as good health now as could be expected for ono of my agc, (about sixty years.) I nave no doubt that it was your Bitters alone, under- Divine Providence, that effected elna wonderful euro. R. T. FLUAI.IN. Hudson, Mich., August 30, 18CC.
